Nov 26, 2012 at 2:04 comment added Martin Brandenburg This question is quite challenging, despite of being quite basic at first sight. I have played around with a lots of cocomplete abelian categories, but somehow they always turn out to be complete. Meanwhile I suspect that counterexamples will be quite strange ...

Nov 25, 2012 at 23:37 comment added Fernando Muro Wrong answers are also hepful. They prevent us from falling in the same mistakes again and again.
Nov 24, 2012 at 16:18 comment added Simone Virili I agree even if I think that an answer is automatically accepted only if it has at least 2 up votes.
Nov 24, 2012 at 12:08 comment added Martin Brandenburg Perhaps the (wrong) answers should be deleted so that they won't be accepted by the bounty rule.
Nov 23, 2012 at 6:22 comment added Bugs Bunny Whoops, I am withdrawing my answer as it is obviously wrong. Thanks for pointing it out...

Nov 17, 2012 at 14:46 comment added Martin Brandenburg Your lemma is a special case of the general observation that coreflective subcategories of complete categories are complete.

Nov 16, 2012 at 14:02 comment added Simone Virili @Andrej Bauer: It is what I wrote in the question: an abelian category is Grothedieck if it is cocomplete, colimits are exact and is has a set of generators. The canonical example is that of a category of modules. A deep result of Gabriel and Popescu characterizes Grothendieck categories as the torsion-theoretic localizations of module categories. (see also en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grothendieck_category)
Nov 16, 2012 at 13:58 comment added Andrej Bauer Excuse my ignorance, but what is a Grothendieck category?
